- To avoid having a bunch of locks that end up always getting acquired as
a group, give each ppc(4) device a mutex which it shares with all the
child devices including ppbus(4), lpt(4), plip(4), etc. This mutex
is then used for all the locking.
- Rework the interrupt handling stuff yet again. Now ppbus drivers setup
their interrupt handler during attach and tear it down during detach
like most other drivers. ppbus(4) only invokes the interrupt handler
of the device that currently owns the bus (if any) when an interrupt
occurs, however. Also, interrupt handlers in general now accept their
softc pointers as their argument rather than the device_t. Another
feature of the ppbus interrupt handlers is that they are called with
the parent ppc device's lock already held. This minimizes the number
of lock operations during an interrupt.
- Mark plip(4), lpt(4), pcfclock(4), ppi(4), vpo(4) MPSAFE.
- lpbb(4) uses the ppc lock instead of Giant.
- Other plip(4) changes:
- Add a mutex to protect the global tables in plip(4) and free them on
module unload.
- Add a detach routine.
- Split out the init/stop code from the ioctl routine into separate
functions.
- Other lpt(4) changes:
- Use device_printf().
- Use a dedicated callout for the lptout timer.
- Allocate the I/O buffers at attach and detach rather than during
open and close as this simplifies the locking at the cost of
1024+32 bytes when the driver is attached.
- Other ppi(4) changes:
- Use an sx lock to serialize open and close.
- Remove unused HADBUS flag.
- Add a detach routine.
- Use a malloc'd buffer for each read and write to avoid races with
concurrent read/write.
- Other pps(4) changes:
- Use a callout rather than a callout handle with timeout().
- Conform to the new ppbus requirements (regular mutex, non-filter
interrupt handler). pps(4) is probably going to have to become a
standalone driver that doesn't use ppbus(4) to satisfy it's
requirements for low latency as a result.
- Use an sx lock to serialize open and close.
- Other vpo(4) changes:
- Use the parent ppc device's lock to create the CAM sim instead of
Giant.
- Other ppc(4) changes:
- Fix ppc_isa's detach method to detach instead of calling attach.
Tested by: no one :-(
other fixes:
- Add pointers back to device_t objects in softc structures instead
of storing the unit and using devclass_get_device().
- Add 'lpbb', 'pcf', 'pps', and 'vpo' child devices to every 'ppbus' device
instead of just the first one.
- Store softc pointers in si_drv1 of character devices instead of
pulling the unit number from the minor number and using
devclass_get_softc() and devclass_get_device().
- Store the LP_BYPASS flag in si_drv2 instead of encoding it in the minor
number.
- Destroy character devices for lpt(4) when detaching the device.
- Use bus_print_child_footer() instead of duplicating it in
ppbus_print_child() and fix ppbus_print_child()'s return value.
- Remove unused AVM ivar from ppbus.
- Don't store the 'mode' ivar in the ppbus ivars since we always fetch it
from the parent anyway.
- Try to detach all the child devices before deleting them in
ppbus_detach().
- Use pause() instead of a tsleep() on a dummy address when polling the
ppbus.
- Use if_printf() and device_printf() instead of explicit names with unit
numbers.
Silence on: current@
- Retire IVARs for passing IRQs around. Instead, ppbus and ppc now allow
child devices to access the interrupt by via a rid 0 IRQ resource
using bus_alloc_resource_any().
- ppc creates its own interrupt event to manage the interrupt handlers of
child devices. ppc does not allow child devices to use filters. It
could allow this if needed, but none of the current drivers use them
and it adds a good bit of complication. It uses
intr_event_execute_handlers() to fire the child device interrupt handlers
from its threaded interrupt handler.
- Remove the ppbus_dummy_intr() hack. Now the ppc device always has an
interrupt handler registered and we no longer bounce all the way up to
nexus to manage adding/removing ppbus child interrupt handlers. Instead,
the child handlers are added and removed to the private interrupt event
in the ppc device.
semantics.
- Stop testing bpf pointers for NULL. In some cases use
bpf_peers_present() and then call the function directly inside the
conditional block instead of the macro.
- For places where the entire conditional block is the macro, remove the
test and make the macro unconditional.
- Use BPF_MTAP() in if_pfsync on FreeBSD instead of an expanded version of
the old semantics.

Uses of the BUS_*() versions in the implementation of foo_intr methods
in bus drivers were not changed. Mostly this just means that some

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

netisr_queue() now returns (0) on success and ERRNO on failure. At the

Previously it would return (1) on success but the return value of IF_HANDOFF()
was interpreted wrongly and (0) was actually returned on success. Due to this
schednetisr() was never called to kick the scheduling of the isr. However this

A couple of other minor nits.
Note1: the correct interrupt level is invoked correctly for each driver.
For this purpose, drivers request the bus before being able to
call BUS_SETUP_INTR and BUS_TEARDOWN_INTR call is forced by the ppbus
core when drivers release it. Thus, when BUS_SETUP_INTR is called
at ppbus driver level, ppbus checks that the caller owns the
bus and stores the interrupt handler cookie (in order to unregister
it later).

is now needed to force chipset detection. If set, the flags 0x40
still avoid detection at boot.
